Re: Suspension rebuild for the summer
What do you want to use the car for? (dd, etc.)
If your using it for a daily you may be better off with a good spring/strut combo instead of the coilovers, may be some KYB's and Tein H-techs (my buddy has this setup on his accord and it rides great). Unless your dead set on them then go for it, Tein makes some nice stuff.
I also definitely recommend getting strut tower braces, those are something that have made a noticeable difference when I used them.

Re: Suspension rebuild for the summer
thanks man. i have kybs now but the absorbers keep blowing out. this is m second set in 6 months. its cause the springs dont seat properly and the absorbers cant take the strain. if i can get it the way i want it i want to do grip track.
